What is the origin of Huangshan Mountain?

Huangshan Mountain is one of the famous scenic spots in China and a world tourist attraction. It is located in Huangshan City in the south of Anhui Province. The elevation of the main peak, Lotus Peak1864.8m.. Huangshan is located in the subtropical monsoon climate zone. Due to the high mountains and deep valleys, the climate changes vertically. At the same time, due to the great difference in radiation between the northern slope and the southern slope, the local topography plays a leading role in its climate, forming a cloudy, humid and rainy climate. Huangshan Mountain is a collection of famous mountains. The majestic Mount Tai, the steep Huashan Mountain, the smoke clouds of Hengshan Mountain, the waterfalls of Lushan Mountain, the strange stones of Yandang Mountain and the beautiful scenery of Emei Mountain are all there. Xu Xiake, a traveler and geographer in the Ming Dynasty, visited Huangshan twice and said with admiration, "If you climb Huangshan, there is no mountain in the world, and you must stop watching it!" There is also a reputation that "the Five Mountains return without looking at the mountains, and the Huangshan Mountain returns without looking at the mountains". Also known as "the first wonder mountain in the world". It can be said that there is no peak, no stone, no pine, no pine and no wonder, and it is famous for the four wonders of Huangshan Mountain, a strange rock and sea of clouds. The second lake, three waterfalls, sixteen springs and twenty-four streams set each other off. The scenery is different in spring, summer, autumn and winter. Huangshan is also known as a "natural zoo and world botanical garden", with nearly 1500 species of plants and more than 500 species of animals. Huangshan Mountain has a pleasant climate and is a unique summer resort, a national-level scenic spot and a summer resort for recuperation. 1985 was selected as one of the top ten scenic spots in China, and 1990 was included in the World Cultural and Natural Heritage List by UNESCO in February, which is the first time that China has been included in both cultural and natural heritage. In February 2004, it was selected into the World Geopark. Famous at home and abroad, unforgettable. There are many Huangshan poems handed down from ancient times to modern times. On May 8, 2007, Huangshan Scenic Area in Huangshan City was officially approved by the National Tourism Administration as a national 5A-level tourist attraction.

Distinguish Huangshan City, huangshan district and Huangshan Scenic Area.

After the establishment of Huangshan City, due to historical reasons, three basically the same place names were formed, namely Huangshan City, huangshan district and Huangshan Scenic Area.

Huangshan City, originally from Huizhou area, is the birthplace of Huizhou studies, one of the three major local studies in China (the other two are Tibetan studies and Dunhuang studies). 1987, in order to develop Huangshan tourism, Huizhou was changed to Huangshan City, and the original Huangshan City (county-level city, Taiping County) was changed to huangshan district, so there were three different "Huangshan": Huangshan City (Tunxi), huangshan district (Taiping, the north gate of Huangshan Scenic Area) and Huangshan Scenic Area (Tangkou Town, the south gate of Huangshan Scenic Area).

Huangshan Scenic Area (that is, at the foot of Huangshan Mountain to be visited) is currently within the administrative area of huangshan district, not within the area where the Huangshan Municipal Government is located. The seat of Huangshan Municipal Government, Huangshan Station and Huangshan Airport are about 70 kilometers away from Huangshan Scenic Area.
